    Imagine a comically long-nosed Bf 109 just to accommodate a front engine that goes all the way to the wings' roots: that is the Me 209, a propaganda race plane. Her Daimler-Benz DB 601ARJ inverted V-12 liquid-cooled piston engine is throttled up for a good spin, in which she speaks in a disappointed tone.

    I am Messerschmitt Me 209 V1, a single-engine racing aircraft, designed for and succeeded at breaking speed records, and nothing else... I guess being a propaganda counts too?
